The letter is signed in glitter blue ink, with flourish. Although this letter is a skilled forgery, it has not come from the supposed sender - though any responses will be returned to the witch herself.

Miss Reid!

Belated congratulations on your lofty appointment. What a wonderful achievement for someone so young! Have you had aspirations of being the close assistant of high ranks of government? What’s next in your sights, Level One? My sources tell me that Minister Glass always remembers your name[1], and is grooming you for higher things. He must trust you.

Can we trust you, Abigail Reid? Word is that you like to ride unicorns and engage in a little mischief. Might I make it worth your while?

What is it like to work for the likes of Solomon Carstairs? Is he a fair boss? Does he remember your name? Do you feel you are adequately compensated for the additional hours you do? Does he still quack under pressure? (If you don’t know what I mean, I refer you dearest, to our exclusive some months back of the dramatic escape from the bloodbath in Level Nine. Those poor teenagers. Just your age too. Maybe you knew them?

If you can source a photograph of Carstairs and a duck in the same frame, we will pay you handsomely.

Yours,

LIL SNIGGER
